ESP performed mobile LiDAR data collection services for approximately 76 miles of rail line for the northern U.S. commuter transportation district Positive Train Control (PTC) project in Lake Porter, LaPorte and St. Joseph counties in Indiana.
Our hy-rail equipped mobile LiDAR system drove the rail ROW at a collection speed between 15 to 20 mph, while acquiring the spatial data into a point cloud database. Using a 360-degree mobile spatial imaging system, we captured fully synchronized, high-quality georeferenced point clouds and high-resolution imagery. The vehicle-mounted system is designed for conducting as-built modeling, inventory, inspection, and asset management for roadways, bridges, railway, utilities and other infrastructure.
